Never been so proud to be Canadian... and I am German. ?

It is NOW a National Security Imperative that we build oil and gas pipelines to all three coasts so we can never be held hostage by Americans Again! I AM CANADIAN!!!

I'm a Canadian living in the USA. I want to fly my Canadian flag, but the Americans will take that as our house wants Canada as a 51st state. It will never happen!

Canada ?? I m proud to be Canadian. I've never been a fan of Justin, but today, he's speaking from the heart and for Canadians. This may be Trumps stupidest move and will hurt Canada as well as the US.

As a Canadian I can confirm times will be tough for a certain period of time but I can assure you that we will never give up ! Let's goo Canada

Never been more proud to be Canadian. And thank you to all Americans supporting us. ❤

I wish I were a Canadian. But then, I have wished that for the last 40 years of my life. Too bad I could never make the point score necessary to emigrate. I am ashamed to live in the US. Trump has to go, by any means.

It’s truly unbelievable how gullible people can be, and I’m not saying this to be cruel, this is just the straight truth. Justin Trudeau is a proven liar and an opportunist, plain and simple. Time and time again, he’s shown that he’ll say whatever fits his agenda, no matter how dishonest or manipulative. He’s openly embraced and pushed harmful, nonsensical ideologies, including radical transgender policies aimed at children. Without question, he’s been the most damaging Prime Minister in Canadian history. Under his leadership, Canada isn’t just struggling, it’s circling the drain. That speech everyone’s praising — he didn’t even write it. It’s all just another performance, another chance to prop up his fake image. The truth is, Trudeau has done far more harm to this country than good, and that’s the reality whether people want to admit it or not.\n\nAnd for all the Trump haters out there, it’s incredible, actually baffling, how nobody seems to be talking about the billions and billions of taxpayer dollars that have been completely wasted — just vanished into thin air. You don’t hear a word about that. It’s unbelievable. Meanwhile, America’s borders were secure under Trump, but you never hear about that either. And let’s not forget, men weren’t allowed to compete against women in sports, which should be common sense, but somehow even that’s controversial now. The silence on all of it is staggering. It’s absolute insanity.

Hahaha we want to be friends you know like the ones who never have their wallet. The kind of friends that screw over their own people with laws and rules that the supreme leaders decide is “hate”. \nBoy he sure doesn’t want to talk about the dollar amount huh? We want free military and free money now!!!! Stomp stomp stomp give me my money daddy Trump. All you have to do is make a little effort on your end there Justin. All we are doing is reciprocating the kindness you show us. Your military members support you? \n\nPut it to a vote if you will not censor them I think you might get a sense of how out of touch you are with your own country. \n\nWe love Canadians we dislike the leadership and the smashing laws that take it out on the common citizen that don’t live in a drug riddled city. You know the majority of your citizens?

As a Canadian, we love everyone! Except bullies and people that create wars and attack innocent people. I have nothing against people from U.S or Russia. I disagree with there leaders however. I don't like our leader but when you start a fight I always was told to never back down. Trump doesn't want to work together. He wants to crush everyone and destroy. NUTS! Canada will fight a bully always. We are also the friendliest people in the world.. Just don't piss us off!

I have never heard a Canadian sound so fierce and it makes me wish I were a Canadian today. Canada, there are many many Americans that are so ashamed today be part of this country today and please know that we fully support you putting our country in its place. We hope that you know we have your back and that we hope that you will forgive us when we have shown we actually deserve it

Mr. Trudeau, As an American who has never voted for Trump, I apologize for the person we currently have in the White House, and wish Canada and Mexico the best. Do what you have to do, and hopefully it will cause enough disruption that Trump will have to retreat. Most of us consider Canadians and Mexicans our friends. A lot of people in the US are contacting our representatives in Congress, participating in economic boycotts, and joining groups like the ACLU that are bringing lawsuits against some of the actions that have already occurred. God bless Canada and Mexico!

Canadian brothers and sisters - I apologize for that lunatic we have currently occupying the WH. I never voted for that crazy man-child with a bad temper and a very ugly disposition. I hope it will be less than 4 years….

Canada has not been straight with the US. I am IBEW. I have work side-by-side with countless Canadians who are in the IBW. I have never worked side-by-side with the US IBEW worker who has ever worked in Canada. Also Canada has been subsidizing their lumber mills for years, not charging them for The timber so they have an unfair advantage. Let’s let Canada pay their fair share to protect themselves instead of depend on the US to protect them.

It saddens me that Canada did not purchase alaska when it was possible. We have never felt like an american state. id rather be Canadian.

PROUD TO BE CANADIAN WE WILL NEVER BEND THE KNEE TO A FELON AND CRIMINAL!!!! ????????????

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

I've never been so proud of you Justin Trudeau! If I could, I'd vote for you today. I think you're the leader we need more than ever. Thank you for everything you've done for us.\n\nI'm scared as hell of what's to come, who will lead us. If the Conservatives gain power I'm afraid we will go the way of the US and its idiot in charge and what will become of the world...\n\nOur next election will matter more than ever. I hope as Canadians we come out in droves and vote for democracy and not sit at home and watch the Right win. I've never voted Liberal before, I've always supported the NDP. But this next election regardless of who is elected as leader for the Liberals I will vote for them to keep Poiliever out of office as that will be catastrophic. \n\nOnce again thank you for everything Justin Trudeau ❤️

Americans like myself are appalled at the current administration. I don’t blame you for doing this Canada. I respect Canadians and feel bad this is happening. It will only hurt the people but we must never let the bully win. We hope this sends a stern message to the Orange Cheeto .

Canadian here ... we are so very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ... Canadians coast to coast are 100% united. We are buying Canadian, or if not available here from a trusted partner ... BOYCOT everything from the usa. We can NEVER trust the usa again. What I can't get by is 77+ million of you voted for ALL of this. We are defending our country, americans ask yourselves ... why exactly are you going to be paying more? who benefits? thank you felon president for this

This idiot so call leader destroyed Canada with the evil , woke Liberals, you met your mstch now and I hope Canada becomes apart if USA to teach a lesson to every woke Liberal Canadian, we have to bring back strong Christian family communities and get rid of illegal migrants, transgenders, STOP Sexualizing children, STOP all foreign aid especially to the Ukraine, you help your own first and foremost, this idiot Justin Trudeau has to be kucked out of Canada and never let back aling with every other liberal.

Hahahaha thats a good one. You will stand up for canadians. Since when you care about canadians ? All you care is to drain their accounts with never ending rising taxes.

President Trump can forgive Zelenskyy, but he should NEVER forgive Justin Trudeau, he’s the one who opened up the Northern Border and let all these millions of Illegal Indian nationals to the country! Also another major abuse, which gets unnoticed, is the TN (Trade Nafta) visa, every year nearly 50,000 Canadians (mostly, 95% Indians) moves to America and steal high paid American jobs. It’s high time to stop this abuse, Indians are using this short route to immigrate to the US, high time to put an end to it!

The people who supported Trump will never be forgiven. You just made life harder for both Americans and Canadians and I’m sure you’ll soon come crying about how life is sooo much harder and how you couldn’t have possibly known this could’ve happened. You think the world loves you but in reality, much of the world despises you and favours Canadians over you. You will soon see how delusional you are.

I never voted for that dangerous man but feel ashamed as an American for this betrayal against our nicest and closest allies. The Canadians must be very proud of their great, smart and brave leader, Mr Trudeau

Trump is trying to end a war it’s not the same thing. We don’t need Canada if you haven’t been to America then you don’t know. We can make whatever you can make and better we can grow anything and more then you can just bc of regional weather. Canada is mad bc they make a lot of money off of us and trump is changing America and getting what it’s worth. America always pays more for imports and exports , why? and yet with out American people buying y’all’s stuff you your government will fall gotta keep last and for most gotta keep Canadian politicians payed as far as I know y’all haven’t had to worry about prices in y’all’s country. For years we have been paying more for stuff that should be made here or we pay less. Plain and simple we are getting what we are worth take it or leave. It will be funny when he cuts all exports from Canada it will take a little bit but we will compensate ans there gonna with they just took the 25% little saying over here is you never know what you got till it’s gon.

As a Canadian, Trump will regret this. I repeat regret this. I am 60 years old and l never saw this ever in my life. Trump called Biden a stupid president he should eat his words and take a long look at himself. Biden had much more class and respect for others. He is attending Putin bc Putin has dirty laundry on him. Trump and Putin are the antichrist but don't realize that GOD is in command always was always will be. Lord have mercy have mercy on us all. Protect us from evil. Grant us peace in this world.?

I have never been more proud to be Canadian. We are a strong, independent, polite and kind country. Thank you for all the support from around the globe. I have tears.

As a Canadian I have no use for that useless pos Trudeau. Can’t wait till I never see the loser again.

Articulate, thoughtful, educated, emotional response. Something we will never get under Krasnov trump and maga cult. Thank you Canadian citizens for at least having an articulate leader.

I Chose to stand with Canada…My Apologies to all Canadians for the conduct of the Dictator Wannabe in our country, I for one did not and would never vote to put him in office.. Stay strong Canada for the Majority of the United States stands with you! In Solidarity to your cause. God Bless you all.

Europe has just announced an 800 billion Euro defence plan; I bet they’d be very interested in Canada’s critical minerals. Canadians will not forget this; this has damaged our relationship with the U.S. and it may never recover. We cannot forget that Americans voted this man back into power knowing who and what he is; they somehow believed that he was magically going to lower the cost of eggs, end a war and save the economy. Canadians will never trust that Americans won’t again elect someone so stupid and pathetically unfit to lead their country; we have to start cutting the trade ties now so that we will never be this vulnerable again. I do agree with Dumpty that we need to pull our weight militarily, so we need to invest in our security and we also need to align ourselves with Europe since Dumpty is clearly aligning the U.S. with Russia.

American here, an actual conservative who never voted for Trump. Canada should immediately turn off the oil to stick it to Trump, and people everywhere should boycott Tesla permanently. The Canadian oil would do best going to Europe to help shut off imports from Russia.\n\nTrump is a traitor who acts like a Russian agent.

GOD BLESS CANADA, LONG LIVE CANADA. I am a student immigrant who had a choice between US and Canada. I chose Canada, and I have never regretted my choice. The people might not know this but Canada is an amazing country. People have no idea how Canadians have built a fantastic country in some of the toughest conditions. Canadians are some of the most polite, helpful and kind people.

Wow an angry Canadian. Never thought I would see that. So sorry Canada. So vey sorry

Trump is now in bed with Russia and Canadians will never lower themselves to that level, we know there are some great people in the United States please get your house in order, and return to the good side on the world stage.

I am seriously ready to become a Canadian now because of my governments horrific behavior right now. They would never do what Trump is doing to their people and country!

To all Canadians, Europe has your back. Stay strong. Greetings from Germany to all Canadians ♥ but also to all Americans who never wanted Trump.

We are reasonable, than why are we being absolutely destroyed by our politicians for the last 10 years? Thats not reasonable.\n\nThe reason they so outspoken now, is because they know it will make it even worse than what they did, and will continue to do..\n\nIf this tarrif thing never happened would be business as usual, and the Canadian Politicians would just keep making Canada even more expensive, now they have someone to blame for the absolute horrible position they put Canada long before this issue.

I always thought trump is the Manchurian candidate . Slowly destroying within . Just surprised or not that ordinary American can’t figure that out. Trudeau was never have a good approval rating and now he have resigned from his party soon that he rating suddenly gone up because of this tariff. Good luck American . Stay strong Canadian , time to trade with eu

Stop handing this guy microphones. Hes not our PM and he does not and has NEVER spoke for Canadians. Lets not pick a fight with USA who could wipe us off the map in half and hour.

I have never been more proud to be a Canadian! \n??❤️??

Canadians can't stand you Justin ? your party ruined the country and the World never forgot how you treated the truckers and the Canadians supporting the cause... you little fascist.

Canadian here . Not interested in buying anything american nor visiting states ever again .Been to usa multiple times and will not go back , at least until there is some leadership that I can respect. I have love for Americans, but never to the detriment of Canada.

Canada ??? We will fight against the h00dlooms in the WH and his minions. An inspiring speech which is the extreme opposite of that ? ?‍?. This is how to address those people without being antagonistic. Canadians are indeed good polite people and can never be disparaged.

Canadian here, my grandfather died fighting the Nazi's during WW2 in the Raid on Dieppe and is buried in France. Trump (The Evil One) and Musk are Nazi's. Remember when they were campaigning on the water and the last few boats in the parade were flying Nazi flags???? I will never let that Hitler wannabe take my precious country. Everything he touches turns into worm vomit. I will pray for my American friends and family: God please remove this maniac from the White House. Love, Nancy

Its so sad?? God help us a mad man is hurting all of the World pray everyone pray hard for Gods intervention....we love Canadian neighbors ...true Christians never act lime this never?????

From all the bullying that this man gets from Canadian citizens and American leaders, I love how he handles things very professionally. He’s got exceptional self control and never lost his temper. Always showing humbleness. A great example of a true Canadian.

I hope the Prime minister reads these comments. If he doesn't then let others from around Canada read these messages and pass them on to everyone in Canada until it reaches every leader in Canada. Prime Minister Trudeau and all those who lead our provinces. When you come out to talk to all the Canadian, the Americans and all of our allies around the world. Please keep reminding President Trump. That Canada is still not and will never be for sale, no matter what. And don't remind him once. Keep telling him that everything you go on camera. And keep saying it until Trump finally gets it. Greenland you do the same about your country. And you too keep telling him this no matter how it takes. Keep sending him this message even after he gets tired of hearing it. Let us show this low-life criminal what we say and do to him and anyone else who abuse their power and authority.

Is it possible Trump is lying about Canadian drug trafficking? I dont think so, Trump cares so much about his credibility he would never lie to anyone ?
